Book Name:Aashiqon ka Safr e Madina

Hadees: مَنۡ حَجَّ وَلَمۡ يَزُرۡنِيۡ فَقَدۡ جَفَانِيۡ The person who performs Hajj and does not visit me, he is not devoted to me. (Kashf-ul-Khifa, vol. 2, pp. 218, Hadees 2458)

 

[The scholars] said, ‘You have already visited once in your life.’ A’la Hadrat  رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه said, ‘In my humble opinion, the meaning of the Hadees is not that visiting once is sufficient, though a person has performed Hajj so many times but it is essential to pay a visit with every Hajj; now please make Du’a         [for me] so that I may get to the Blessed Raudah of the Beloved Prophet       صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Once I behold the Blessed Raudah I do not bother if I depart from this world at the same time.’ (Malfuzaat-e-A’la Hadrat, vol. 2, pp. 201)

 

اُس کے طُفیل حج بھی خُدا نے کرا دِیئے   اَصلِ مُراد حاضِری اُس پاک دَر کی ہے

 (Hadaiq-e-Bakhshish, pp. 202)

 

چَلوں دُنیا سے میں اِس شان سے اے کاش! یَا الله     شَہِ اَبرار کی چوکَھٹ پہ سَر ہو میرا خَم مَولٰی

سُنہری جالِیوں کے سامنے اے کاش! ایسا ہو         نکل جائے رسولِ پاک کے جلوؤں میں دَم مَولٰی

 (Wasail-e-Bakhshish, pp. 98)

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

 

Dear Islamic brothers! Have you seen that the heart of A’la Hadrat Imam Ahmad Raza Khan عَـلَيْهِ رَحْمَةُ الـرَّحْمٰن was filled with deep and desperate longing for visiting the blessed court of the Most Revered and Renowned Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. If he رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه wanted, he could have visited the Blessed Mausoleum of the Noblest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم some other time, but since the deep devotion and strong attachment to the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was his true aim and destination; so, even his critical illness could not prevented him from presenting himself in the blessed court, i.e. the blessed mausoleum of the Holy Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.
